Anyone remember another time when unaccepted books were destroyed? I seem to remember a couple....

Replaced with the Junie B Jones Guide to Shitty Grammar?

What kinds of books were these? Old textbooks or literature?

Why not have a book sale?

At least it's more environmentally conscious to burn a book instead of a Kindle.

Orwell was right about authoritarians being unable to do what they want to do without controlling the narrative. They need to proscribe what ideas and information people can and cannot exchange and consider.

In a sense, the issue of Free Speech is more about what the many are allowed to hear than what the suspect few are allowed to say.

Ifall never opened a book in school, otherwise he would remember the havoc a middleschooler and a sharpie can do to a textbook.

Sometimes things just need replacing.

The "engaging, relevant, culturally diverse" nonsense is a tell

Once again, the "engaging, relevant, culturally diverse" nonsense is a tell

If you'd read more books, you'd know a perpetual motion machine like that violates the laws of thermodynamics.

I'll have to begrudgingly research the laws of fecaldynamics to verify that respective compliance, though.

Actually, I was just taking the opportunity to trigger our resident authoritarian.

Hey, that's what Edward Norton's father said at the dinner table in American History X!

Here's one of the books in that dumpster. It's a true gem and thinking man's book:

I just through a sh!t ton of text books out in my office. They were there when I got there.

I tried to see if they could be recycled.

The office manager told me just to toss them.

I called up the dept in charge of recycling and they said they needed a work order from the dept and that the dept would be billed for them to come get the stuff.

Off to the trash they went!
